763 There Is A Long Way to Go

Lin Qiao silently looked at Wu Yueling, then gave Wu Chengyue a glance. It was not the first time he shamelessly used the little girl as an excuse. Why did he bring Ling Ling into the conversation every time he felt that he couldn't convince her?

What made Lin Qiao felt even more speechless was what happened next.

'I want Daddy to sleep together with Zombie Mommy!'

The cute little girl looked at Lin Qiao and said a few words in her heart. Those words almost caused Lin Qiao to fail at expression management.

"What weird thoughts have you been putting into Ling Ling's head?" Lin Qiao looked at Wu Chengyue with discontent.

"What do you mean by weird thoughts? She is my daughter. Of course, I'll only put healthy thoughts into her mind," Wu Chengyue responded smilingly. While waving at Ling Ling, he looked at Lin Qiao and continued, "You seem to be able to read her mind. Apart from me, you're the only one who can do that."

"Why is she thinking about me sleeping with you… Eh, I mean, the three of us sleeping together? Who told her about that? Would that thought just pop up in her mind?" Lin Qiao rolled her eyes and complained.

Wu Chengyue looked at her with surprise, then at Wu Yueling. Was the little girl thinking so straightforwardly?

Wu Yueling walked to her father and pulled his trousers while looking up at him.

Wu Chengyue smilingly scooped her up, then said to Lin Qiao, "Ling Ling only wants a mother. Besides, it's normal or mommy and daddy to sleep together, isn't it? Why is that a weird thought? I'm not going to give up. You should make yourself ready."

Having finished talking, she walked to the couch and sat back down with a smile. Once again, Lin Qiao felt how shameless Wu Chengyue could be.

Right at that moment, someone knocked on the door.

"Get in," Lin Qiao unfolded her arms and sat straight as she started looking at the files on her desk while answering to the door in a bland tone.

The door was opened. The man who came into the office wasn't under Lin Qiao's command.

Xiao Licheng nodded at Lin Qiao, then looked at his Chief.

Wu Chengyue gave him a glance, then stood up from the couch and said, "Alright, Chief Lu! Since you have work to do, we'll not keep bothering you."

Then, he held Wu Yueling's hand and headed outside.

Wu Yueling turned to glance at Lin Qiao. A smile abruptly emerged from her little face, but soon faded.

Lin Qiao and Xiao Licheng both rolled their eyes. He was inside her office, yet he shamelessly talked about not bothering her.

'What the hell!' Lin Qiao complained to herself, 'He came in, let out some strange words, then said that he won't keep bothering me. I don't know anyone else who's as thick-skinned as him!'

Wu Chengyue believed that he did like Lin Qiao. If he didn't, why would he want to marry her? At first, he was attracted to her because it was suspicious that she was so different from before. However, as he started paying attention to her, he found her so charming because of her decisiveness, strong vibe, and purely dark zombie eyes, and how she calmly and firmly protected every single person or zombie on her side.

She was cold, resolute, and protective; yet, she did not know how to deal with children. She had no fear of the enemies, yet always fell into Ling Ling's little traps. Every time that happened, he found the zombie lady rather adorable.

He cared about her, but didn't know when that turned into the likeness. He had a vague feeling that it started when Viney entrapped both of them. After that time, his feelings started to change slowly.

He often thought about Lin Qiao's beautiful waist, her smooth and strong zombie skin, and the helpless look on her face when she was enduring the pain. Even picturing that image aroused him and warmed his blood.

But soon, he sighed. She was not slow-minded, and was vigilant against him. When was he able to do that with her again? He kept fantasizing about her, and his hands could barely satisfy him.

"She is so alert against me. What do I have to do to get into her heart? Helping her isn't gonna work. I want her to like me, not thank me. With all the efforts I've made, I actually ended up like some guy with some kind of bad intentions," Wu Chengyue walked out of Lin Qiao's office, then said to Xiao Licheng.

"How am I supposed to know? I've never chased a girl before," Xiao Licheng shrugged.

"I guess there's still a long way to go for me," Wu Chengyue sighed with disappointment. Somehow, he felt that he would have to spend a lot of time and energy to finally bring her home.

He didn't plan to give up though. He had time, and he was willing to try and figure out a way into her heart! If there was no shortcut to go, he was willing to leave it to time.

"Oh, why are you here?" Wu Chengyue stopped walking as he finally thought of work.

"I heard something new from Huaxia Base," said Xiao Licheng.

"What's new? It's just a zombie emperor, isn't it? Huaxia is such a powerful base, and now they have Gao Haoyun. Can't they deal with it?" Wu Chengyue held Wu Yueling's hand and said while walking.

"It's about the zombie emperor. I received a message, saying that after the massive zombie attack, strong lightning strikes fell from time to time aimlessly. The range and time of those thunder strikes are both unpredictable. The thunder-powered zombie emperor appears to be very agitated now," said Xiao Licheng.

"So?" Wu Chengyue turned his head and gave Xiao Licheng a glance while waiting for the rest of the speech.

"So, based on that, a large number of zombies are now gathering toward Huaxia Base. The first batch of zombies will follow the emperor to Huaxia Base from Heilong Base, and the second batch would be from near Huaxia Base. We have also detected that more zombies have been gathering toward Huaxia Base from the surrounding cities. The number of those zombies… I'm afraid…" Xiao Licheng wore a serious face while finishing his speech.

"The surrounding cities?" Wu Chengyue stopped moving and looked at Xiao Licheng to confirm the information with him. If the zombies in a couple of cities gathered together, things would be a lot more complicated than just a massive zombie attack. The number of zombies would go higher than ten million.

"Yes. The zombies in the cities near Huaxia Base seem to have been summoned. They are now all moving toward Huaxia Base. We weren't sure about that at first, but after two days of observation, we can now say that for sure," Xiao Licheng nodded and said certainly.

Wu Chengyue's smile faded from his face. He blinked and said, "In that case, Huaxia Base will be in huge trouble. Does that have anything to do with the zombie emperor?"

Xiao Licheng responded, "I think so. On the emperor's way to Huaxia, the army behind him never stopped growing.
